Abstract
Since technology is advancing in every aspect of our lives, interest in virtual education has begun to grow. One of the technologies that has been in development, and it is being updated to reflect modern changes is Metaverse. However, many educators and students are still unsure of how Metaverse can be used to change the environment of the classroom. Grounded in UTAUT3, this study demonstrates the adoptability of Metaverse as a virtual learning environment for students and educators in UK Higher Education. This study intends to fill in a knowledge gap on how to develop a platform that is more interactive than current platforms in Higher Education. Metaverse can help educators develop their pedagogical strategies for their teaching purposes that enhance students’ performance and experience. This research will offer policy makers at educational institutions to improve their technological capabilities if they are to support the usage of Metaverse in education.
